A comparative study of multiple physical assessment indicators to identify psychological symptoms: a cross-sectional study based on Chinese adolescents
This study found that neither the ABSI nor the BRI was superior to BMI, WC, or WHtR in predicting psychological symptoms in Chinese adolescents. The ABSI was the least predictive of psychological symptoms in Chinese adolescents, whereas the BRI showed potential as a surrogate for WC and WHtR indicators for assessing psychological symptoms. This study provides additional help and suggestions for better identification of psychological symptoms in Chinese adolescents.
